Historic Tax Credits
Underused Tools for Funding
Historic tax credits can be a wonderful tool to help fund renovation of historic structures.
We Know How to Use Them
Because tax credits are such a great tool for funding, we have made it a priority to understand how these federal incentives impact the design and realization of a renovation project.
We help you develop project concepts that can receive approval for tax credits.
We Do All The Paperwork & Submission
Our services include preparation of all three parts of the National Park Service's Historic Certification Application, and follow-up with the State Historic Preservation office and the Department of the Interior to assure a smooth and timely review that results in a qualifying tax credit project.
Reduce Construction Costs up to 20%
If you own an historic structure, and plan to renovate it, by following guidelines prescribed by the U.S. Department of the Interior and the Internal Revenue Service, the project can qualify for a 20% dollar-for-dollar tax credit on qualifying project expenses.
That's like a 20% rebate on the cost of construction.

Other Sources of Equity for a Renovation Project

- conservation easements
- facade easements
- affordable housing credits
